Mark at Rogue Audio


I want to relay an awesome experience I had with Mark O'Brien, the head of Rogue Audio, the other day.

The hurricane had me working from home. I powered up my Rogue M180's and one of the tubes wouldn't hold bias - it was jumping all over. Assuming it was a bum tube, I replaced it with 2 others, both new, and those would not hold bias either.

Disgruntled, I emailed Rogue to explain the situation. My phone rang an hour later: it was Mark offering to help. He had me up and running in 10 minutes. Turns out that tube's fuse clip had loosened, so he had me remove the fuse and "crimp" the arms together with my fingers, then replace the tube. Voila!

An absolutely GREAT guy, who really cares about his customers (and his gear)!

he worked on an amp for me that got damaged in transit back to me, no problem, he sent me a brand new amp right away!

plus easy to talk to - agreed!
Agreed, Mark is one of the best people in audio. But, that would all be for naught were his products not as good as they are.

In my opinion, a buyer is making a foolish mistake to forego products from the likes of Quicksilver and Rogue for Chinese gear.
As a Rogue dealer, I agree with you guys 100%. Excellent people, excellent company and excellent products!

Mark and Nick go out of their way to make sure customers are helped and happy.
I have used the Rogue M150 and now m180 for about 8 years. I have only had one issue with the amp and had the same experience. Mark was very responsive and help me identify the problem and fix it in about 15 minutes.
I feel the same about guys like Bobby at Merlin and Canary Audio guys and Ralph at Atma-Sphere and of course theres more.Glad to hear your story,cheers,Bob
